Audrey Moyer is an arts leader, cultural producer, and strategist whose work focuses on the systems that shape how artists live, work, and sustain their practices.

With more than fifteen years of experience across nonprofit, municipal, commercial, and artist-led contexts, she brings a cross-sector perspective on how cultural production intersects with funding structures, policy environments, spatial infrastructure, and in-field networks. Across her career, she has focused on translating artistic vision into sustainable structures — coordinating stakeholders, designing processes, and navigating the institutional realities that shape cultural work.

Currently, Audrey serves as Director of Operations at Art + Practice in Los Angeles, a private foundation that supports transition-age foster youth and children experiencing displacement through partnerships with First Place for Youth and Nest Global, while also providing free access to museum-curated exhibitions on its campus in Leimert Park. Previously, she was Director of Exhibitions and Operations at Perrotin, Assistant Curator at the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery (City of LA Department of Cultural Affairs), and Curatorial Fellow at the Hyde Park Art Center in Chicago. Early in her career, she cut her teeth with the public arts nonprofit Creative Time. She has worked directly with artists including Charles Gaines, Vanessa Beecroft, and Kanye West to produce exhibitions, installations, large-scale sculpture, performances, public art, and films.

Beyond these roles, Audrey has curated independently, as well as alongside Paulina Samborska under the moniker AM-PS. She founded the Los Angeles project space Favorite Goods (2011–2015), working early career with artists including Martine Syms, Timur Si-Qin, Michael Jones McKean, Orion Martin, Kathleen Ryan, Nevine Mahmoud, Kenneth Tam, Erin Jane Nelson, and Claudia Comte. The space was supported by Swissnex, Pro Helvetia / Swiss Arts Council, the Consulate General of France in Los Angeles, and the Consulate General of Israel. 

Thinking at the intersection of contemporary art, design, architecture, labor practices, and the policies and infrastructures that shape cultural output, Audrey’s work is driven by an interest in how culture operates as both a creative and civic force — and how artists, organizations, and communities can build more equitable and resilient systems to support creative life.

Her research often begins with spatial and structural questions. She received an M.A. from the University of Chicago in 2019, where her thesis examined Gaetano Pesce’s 1990s office interior for the advertising agency Chiat/Day — one of the earliest examples of workplace design responding to the emergence of the World Wide Web — from the perspective of the end user. The project explored the tension between symbolic, future-forward-fantasty design and the lived realities of workers whose daily environment ultimately failed to support them.

Her current research continues this thread, focusing on the support structures surrounding artists and creatives with caregiving responsibilities, particularly the lack of governmental childcare support for ages 0–3 and the absence of maternity and caregiving protections for the self-employed. She has also been developing ideas around access to healthcare for artists and freelancers, including what an artist-centered healthcare or union-style benefits model might look like in practice.

Outside of her professional work, Audrey serves as an elected representative and Secretary on the Silver Lake Neighborhood Council and was selected as a 2026 Arts for LA ACTIVATE Delegate.
